Thank you for your great work.
Hello to everyone,
I really need a little help to the new X96 Mini
it seems they change the wifi module.
no wifi and no bluetooth… and when reboot or poweroff, they kill the processes, i have black screen, but the light remains blue. Only if i disconnect from power and connect again, the box reboot.
X96 mini :

Hi Portisch, todays i tried wifi again, but i cannot see individual networks in Connections. After restart, it works 50/50.

Maybe you’re just to fast. When such QCA module is found it loads the driver and restart the conman service. This maybe take a while. The log shows no problem or I do not find any. I guess you have to live what you bought (cheap) 
Thats weird, the device ran for about an hour, but the wifi connections were dead whole time. Like in picture I sent above.
If they disappear again go back to main window in Kodi and try to execute systemctl restart connman. What a bit and check again in CE settings if the networks back again. If yes please enable kodi debug logging and do it again. Then upload kodi debug files: How to post debug logs
X96 Mini users with SDIO_ID=3030:3030:
Please setup 19.1_Matrix_rc2 stable first!
If Matrix is running please update with this tar:
CoreELEC-Amlogic-ng.arm-19.1-Matrix_devel_20210412115501.tar
It include a updated SSV6XXX_SDIO driver and maybe works.
Please post a log by:
dmesg | paste
Would there be any chance of this one becoming operational under CE?
Or is it just not possible/too much fuzz/else ?
If i can assist with any other info needed, pls let me know.
Thanks.
As u wrote. Connections empty, but with command: systemctl restart connman everything works flawlessly. Here are debug logs:
Before command (not working): http://ix.io/2VQQ
After command (working): http://ix.io/2VQR
And they stay online? Also after a hour?
So it happen that sometimes the WLAN are not found after a reboot or are they visible and disappear?
After a hour seems to be everything still ok.
- if the list doesnt load after boot, …after 1 min, 5 min, 1 hour, list is still empty.
- but if the list loads after boot (or after systemctl restart connman command), it still holds. Everything seems to be ok.
btw I have 4/32GB version, my friend has 4/64GB version - same issues
@Dzimmi please update with this image:
CoreELEC-Amlogic-ng.arm-19.1-Matrix_devel_20210412202424.tar
Please reboot multiple times and check if it is working now.
Please post also the output of:
journalctl -u connman
one time if it does not work, and one time if it worked and the wlans are visible.
EDIT:
@Dzimmi I had a typo in the test image. Just delete it and download this image for the tests:
CoreELEC-Amlogic-ng.arm-19.1-Matrix_devel_20210412203548.tar
EDIT2:
Please post also the output of:
udevadm info /sys/bus/sdio/devices/*
first image, works all 10/10 restarts/shutdowns, Log is here: http://ix.io/2VRo
Booting is maybe about 20 seconds slower.
Now i will try new image.
second tar file:
5x doesnt work
